@daylight7 since you can you hear the motor hum, it is entirely possible that you have trouble with the motor coupling. The motor coupling connects the motor to the washer transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it. Post some images of your motor and transmission with your question. For that use this guide so we can see what you see. Also, give us the exact model number of your washer for the possibility of some more detailed answers.

This could be several things, the agitator dogs might be worn, or the clutch could be bad. You could search google or youtube for a "how to" to diagnose what's going on. Or you could call in for a consultation or repair (this would be expensive and might cost you the amount of a new washer)
